Peace Is No Longer Abstract

Peace is no longer abstract

Peace is a child covered in dust

Tossed and distressed

By the hands of war.

 

Peace rebukes in silence

Bleeds in the open

Pleads, begs

But will the world listen?

 

Peace is no longer abstract

Peace knocks on our door

Gently in chaos, once more

Look what we’ve done to peace.
